In 2272, AdmiralJames T. Kirk discovered that Alur had been orchestrating the importation of contraband Klingon goods, including weaponry, which he intended to be used to drive out all Dinpayav (offworlders) once Mestiko had recovered enough to reassert its independence. He was murdered when his connection to the Klingons was threatened to be publicly revealed. (TOS - Mere AnarchyeBook: Shadows of the Indignant)
